As usual this stupid blog thing is being a pain in the butt. As of now (for the past hour or so) these are the only pictures I could get loaded....

I believe that I mentioned on an earlier post that I am retiring from my "little" projects of creating stuff from my ostrich hides. This decision came after the disaster of a bag I made Lynny. Again, I am very sorry for that =} However, when I was looking at all of my left over material, I felt sad that I waisted so much of it. So I decided to to make ONE MORE thing with the left over material so I could use as much of it as possible. I wanted to try to make a floor pillow, kind of like the one grammy Peper had in her house (do you guys remember that??) I ended up cutting out 2 different square sizes so I made 2 pillows. Once again, it was WAY more work then I was anticipating and it didn't go as smoothly as I had projected in my head. Luckily I had Katy here to help! Nonetheless, I think I broke at least 2 sewing machine needles during the process.

I wanted to put zippers in it to make it easier to put the fluff in it so I recruited Katy to help with that. It was her first attempt at sewing a zipper (that is why I have a picture with her and her zippers!) She did great, much better then the ghetto job I would have done with it.

Anyways, they are finally complete and they are very comfortable as well. Jack loves laying across the big one. I bet Uncle Steve would have been proud of my little creation =) The only down side is they are a little slick right now. You slide off of them a little bit. I'm sure they just need to get broken in!
